Sick Of It All have filed a lawsuit against Mobb Deep over their recent collaboration with Supreme, which allegedly infringes on their trademark logo.The issue relates to the New York hardcore band’s logo, the “Alleyway Crew Dragon”, which the members introduced in 1987 – a year after they formed – and have used in their recordings, merchandise, and advertisements in the time since.Filed last Wednesday (October 11), the lawsuit names Mobb Deep’s Havoc (Kejuan Muchita), the estate of the late rapper Prodigy (Albert Johnson), and Supreme’s owner Chapter 4 Corp as defendants.This comes as streetwear brand Supreme released a collaboration with hip-hop duo Mobb Deep this past summer, which included items featuring the dragon logo on shirts, hats, and other apparel.According to a report by Stereogum, the documents say that the “cases arise out of Defendants’ improper and illegal use of a nearly identical logo mark to Plaintiff’s inherently distinctive, incontestable and famous logo”.A post shared by Supreme (@supreme__hustle)“Immediately prior to the institution of this lawsuit, plaintiff demanded that defendants cease use of their infringing logo and provide an accounting to plaintiff of sales of the infringing goods,” it reads. “Defendants refused to comply with those demands.”As reported by Pitchfork, the suit asks the court to prevent the defendants from using the logo “or any other mark or marks confusingly similar thereto,” as well as a full accounting of revenue generated from using the logo, any products with the logo for destruction and cease of online use, compensatory damages and attorney’s fees.

title track which arrived in August. Speaking of ‘I Don’t Know You’ in a press release, the band said: “This is simply a song about having a crush. About the excitement and playful fantasy that can come from meeting someone unexpectedly at a festival, or on the street, or in line at the grocery store.”They continued: “You don’t know when you’ll see them again but the rush of their possibility lingers, making you yearn to know more about them.” Directed by Mason Mercer and Anthony Miralles, the song’s accompanying video features the band performing in a barn.

Sick of It All are suing Mobb Deep and Supreme for copyright infringement, Billboard reports. The lawsuit was filed in the hardcore band's native New York on October 11; Sick of It All claim that the band's "Alleyway Crew dragon" logo was plagiarized for a collaboration between the rap duo and the streetwear brand. The case names Supreme’s owner Chapter 4 Corp alongside a corporate entity owned by Havoc and the estate of Prodigy (the rapper died in 2017), claiming that the logo featured on the Supreme x Mobb Deep T-shirts and caps is "virtually identical" to the one they have used since 1987.

I love how the chorus has stacks of vocals egging me on to indulge in my bad habits, it feels very much like the voices in my head.”The Buoys vocalist and guitarist Zoe Catterall added: “Words started pouring out of me when I sat down to write my parts.
